2006-04-23 00:22:35 New 360 Brothers in Arms 3 Screen

http://gamereports.com/grimages/876/1145724373/3/1...

Its from the oxm magazine no idea why this site keeps doing things like this. Listing Mass Effect as a ps2 game and listing this screen from the oxm mag as a ps3 shot.

Yay, another screen, another thread!

Maybe it's listed as a PS3 shot because, I dunno, because it is?

Just like mass effect is a ps2 game :P

I don't doubt the ps3 version will look similar, but people on a couple sites are saying based on oxm this isn't a ps3 shot, but they since the game is multiplatform they are using 360 shots to represent the ps3 game as well (not the developers) magazines and websites.

i need to see a hud and a gun. too many shots that are clearly cinematics.

Most of what has been shown in bia3 has been actual ingame (all the stuff that looks cinematic) I wont talk about this latest one though because I'm not sure, but all other media before it was ingame.

Self Shadowing FTW!

I am too poor to own a 360... therefor I play with paper statistics. The results of my indepth scientific anaylisis determined the most important benchmark is Pi. As in The Ring of Light.

Thats pretty good .. almost CGI like.

I think this BIA will focus a lot more on the emotion and relationships of soldiers this time round. In BIA 1 and 2 you didn't really care that much about your fellow brothers coz they just acted like robots and respawned in the next mission if killed. Clearly from this image they are give the soldiers more human characteristics.

Mixed with the amazing cinematic style combat, this game is gonna be the nuts.

I agree Scarface, even the title suggests a tight knit group of soldiers but the only time I actually felt a loss was when that tank commander your character knew from back home got killed.

Full Spectrum Warrior probably had the best feeling of loss because the characters actually had emotions.

That looks incredible. This is easily the best looking game I've ever seen.

2006-04-23 22:22:41

Awesome screenshot..they sure know how to show off their game. Very moody--very realistic..I like it when people are bold enough to show pain and suffering of war without holding back on the little things like EA would..like ya know, blood. ;P

I'm still waiting for somebody to fully bring the horrors of war to a game. I want WWII to be depicted for what it actually was; a bloody mess. If you don't show the war for what it actually was, if feels fake. You remember the beach scene in Saving Private Ryan? Of course you do. Now take out all the blood and guts, and what do you have left? A scene that's not nearly as intense and emotionally powerful, that's what.

Violence doesn't always have to be used in an overdone GTA style. If done right, it can benefit a games look and feel.

Many war veterans has asked ww2 dev not to show bloody mess in ww2 games,not only in medal of honor games,wouldn't be supriced if thats the same in BIA serie.

Well alot of people are against it and not many developers will go against the wishes of people that experienced it so... its up to what the developers want to do.
